Chapter 87: One and the Same Sophie

When I turn away from Margot, I find Kinsley and get a report on the pack's injuries and how things went in her safe room. "Where are our mates?" I ask when she's done.

“They're around, and I don't know about yours, but mine is exhausted. However, he refuses to go rest," she says, worriedly.

"Well, that's about to change. Come with me. You and I are leaders in this pack and if our mates want to tell us that we are equals to them, it's about time for them to prove it." "This ought to be good," I hear her murmur excitedly as she follows me.

I find my mate talking to Alpha Kayce and my father.

"Alpha Hunter," I say, addressing him by his title so he knows I'm serious.

The conversation stops and he turns, raising an eyebrow at me. I look over his body, seeing that his injuries still haven't fully healed.

"You need to go shower and get some rest," I say, seeing Kayce's eyebrow go up at my words.

"I can't yet, Soph. We still have injured, I need..."

"What you need to do, Alpha, is to go wash off this battle and rest so Shaw can heal you."

"Sophie..."

"Am I not your equal in this pack, Hunter?" I ask, stepping up to

him.

"Of course you are, but right now..."

"No, Hunter. Either I am or I'm not. If I looked like you, you'd have had me upstairs and in bed hours ago. Do you trust me to take care of this pack in your absence?" "Sophie..."

"Yes or no, Hunter."

"Yes, Sophie, but..."

"But what, Hunter? I need you healed and strong so that when Joshua comes, you can fight again. We know it's coming, it's only a matter of when. I can't fight, Kinsley can't fight, but your and Lucas will have to, and I need my mate and my Beta at full fighting strength when the battle comes. So, I will say again, get your a**upstairs, get cleaned up, and get into bed." Hunter stares at me for a moment.

"Son, take a word of advice from a man who has been mated to a strong-willed woman for longer than you, never argue with your Luna. You will lose, maybe not at that moment, but you will, especially when what she's saying makes perfect sense," my father says, gently putting his hand on Hunter's shoulder."

Hunter turns to look at my father, then at Kayce as if expecting

one of them to support him.

"Don't look at me, I'm not arguing with her. She's the f**g legend. I know when I'm outrank d," Kayce says, a smile twitching at his lips.

Hunter turns back to me. "You're sure?"

I raise my chin and wait him out.

"Okay then, the pack is yours."

"No, the pack is ours and when you're back to full strength, I know you'll get them ready for the next battle to come," I say, standing my ground. He smiles at me, leaning over to kiss my lips quickly. "Yes, my Luna."

I turn, spotting Lucas talking to some of the wounded warriors. "Beta Lucas," I call out, my voice ringing through the room.

His head snaps up. "Yes, Luna."

Hunter stops, waiting to see what I'm going to say.
